How widespread is the use of PostgreSQL on Solaris? I am beginning to sense
that community support is not currently very strong on this platform, and that
pgsql may not be the best candidate for my current project -- installing LXR on
a 64-bit Solaris system.
I had to do a lot of web searching to learn how to get past a compilation
problem, apparently fixed for the current release; and now It appears (based on
the reply below) that the "configure" setup is not ready to recognize 64-bit
solaris environment; the 32-bit executables are incompatible with 64-bit Perl.
I am not an autoconf hacker, and can't afford in this case to go "where none
have gone before".
This is always a challenge with Free Software, of course: potential users of a
given product need to know how to pick their battles.
So, please advise as to the level of 64-bit Solaris 10 activity with pgsql.
Thanks,
Victor Odhner

Well, to start with, are you using a compiler that can generate 64
bit binaries? How about your libs?
